Braewick Cafe and Caravan Park

About Braewick Cafe and Caravan Park

Braewick Cafe and Caravan Park sits on Shetland's North Mainland with a clear view across to Da Drongs, the dramatic granite sea stacks that rise from the water near Eshaness. The family-run site pairs thirty tent pitches and ten touring pitches with an on-site cafe serving food and drink through most of the day—a genuinely useful stop given how few other options there are on this stretch of coast. Wigwam camping pods are available for those without their own kit, and facilities include a kitchen, laundry, showers, and a play park for children.

Braewick's position makes it an ideal base for visiting the Eshaness cliffs and lighthouse, the geological sites around Stenness, and the ferries north to Yell and Unst. Many visitors pitch, walk the short coastal path to the cliff edge, and spend an evening watching the light change over the stacks before heading in for food—though the cafe can feel a little tired in places, the outlook alone makes it worth booking ahead for peak summer weeks.
